- yen223 2y agoThe generation before me are old and outdated The generation after me are lazy and stupid Only my generation is perfect. - every generation ever
- chasebank 2y agoEvery generation ever used to get drunk, have sex, get in trouble, and weren’t completely depressed. This generation is different. It’s sad.
- mcluck 2y agoI wouldn't call out the depression bit as a Gen Z exclusive. Millennials basically invented modern, every day, gallows humor. Arguably, they're also the ones to normalize going to therapy. Not to say that things aren't bad, just saying that part didn't start with Gen Z.
- r3d0c 2y ago>Millennials basically invented modern, every day, gallows humor lmao what.... they absolutely didn't this is why no one should take anyone on this site seriously about anything, confidentally incorrect, easily conned into the next VC funded marketing project
- mcluck 2y agoSuicidal humor is very much a Millennial trait. They weren't the first to make those jokes but they definitely made it bigger, more common, and went beyond the standard "ugh, just kill me now" you'd hear before.
- mrbungie 2y agoThat's the way of life. Older people think younger people are stupid and reckless, and viceversa. And the younglings think they "figured it out" like no one before them. But no one ever tried to understand each other in the process. Rinse and repeat.
